Getting Ready for Exam Day

There are a number of things you should take care of well before exam day. Don't worry—everything you need to know is on this site.

Review and Practice

Exams are shorter than usual this year, and they'll only include topics and skills most AP teachers and students have already covered in class by early March. Here's how to prepare.

  • Go to the Course-Specific Exam Information tables on the 2020 exam schedule page. Find your exam table to learn details including what material your exam will cover and what resources you'll need to take the exam.

  • Check in with your AP teacher for more guidance about what to practice and what you should focus on.

  • Watch free online classes taught by real AP teachers. Get the schedule for all AP courses or go straight to the AP YouTube channel to browse lessons.

  • Sign in to AP Classroom for free-response questions to practice with.
